Unpacking Your Avalon Water Cooler

The unit has been cleaned prior to departing from the factory. To remove any dust and debris that may collect during shipping we recommend cleaning the unit prior to installation. For cleaning instructions, see pages 11-15.

Locating Dispenser

Do NOT plug in the power cord yet.
Place the dispenser upright on a hard and level surface in a cool and shaded location near a grounded wall outlet. Position the dispenser so there are about four inches of clearance from the wall on the back and both sides.

Operation Instructions

Do not plug in the machine or turn on the heating (#12) and cooling (#11) switches until water has begun to dispense from the cold (#5) and hot (#8) water spout.

1. Remove any label or sticker from the mouth of the bottle.
2. Vertically insert the bottle into the bottle supporter (#1) on the top of the machine. The bottle supporter has a built-in puncturing rod to allow you to use spill-proof caps without opening the plastic bottle seals.
3. Press the hot (#9) and cold (#6) water press paddles for the hot (#8) and the cold (#5) water spout to dispense a drop of water. To dispense water from the hot water spout (#8), please press and hold the red child safety lock button (#7) and press the hot water press paddle (#9) simultaneously.
4. Once water is dispensing from both spouts insert the power plug into a power socket. Turn on (I) the heating switch (#12) and the cooling switch (#11). (If you do not wish to have hot water, please leave the heating switch (#12) in the off (O) position. If you do not wish to have cold water, please leave the cooling switch (#11) in the off (O) position.)
5. Once the switches are in the on position the heating indicator light (#2) and the cooling indicator light (#3) will turn on (I). It will take about 15 – 20 minutes for the hot water to heat to the appropriate temperature. It will take about 1 hour for the cold water to cool to the appropriate temperature.
6. When the water has reached the appropriate temperatures for hot and cold the indicator lights will turn off and the water is ready for use. The indicator lights will turn back on automatically when the machine needs to reheat or cool again.
7. To replace the bottle, vertically pull out the empty bottle with two hands. Using two hands place the new bottle of water vertically into the bottle supporter (#1).

Rinsing, Cleaning, and Draining

To prolong the lifetime of the machine, it is recommended that the unit be cleaned and sanitized manually about every six months.
To clean the outside of the unit
Use a disinfectant of your choice to wipe down the outside of the machine. The disinfectant does not come with this unit. It can be purchased separately from a local store.
To rinse the inside of the unit
The machine has been disinfected prior to departing from the factory. However, it is recommended to rinse and drain the unit prior to installation.

1. Before cleaning, make sure that the cooling switch (#11) and heating switch (#12) are in the off (O) position, and unplug the machine.

2. Once the machine is off, pour water into the top of the unit where the bottle would be placed.

3. Dispense about 2 liters of water from the unit into a bucket by pressing the hot water press paddle (#9) and the cold water press paddle (#6) into a bucket.

4. Place a large bucket beneath the drain outlet (#14) located on the back of the unit. Remove the drain cover and allow the water to drain from the unit. Water will start flowing as soon as the drain cover is removed.
   Caution: The dispenser will heat water to a temperature of approximately 185°F. It can cause severe burns if not handled carefully. Please use caution while operating and cleaning. Please allow ample time for any hot water inside the machine to cool down before draining it.

5. Remove any remaining water in the tanks by dispensing water from the hot water spout (#8) and the cold water spout (#5) into a bucket.

6. After draining is complete, replace the drain cover and use the machine as normal.

Cleaning

To remove mineral deposits that may have built up inside the cold tank, mix 4 L of water with 200 g of citric acid crystals (not included) or a cleaning solution of your choice.

1. Twist off the bottle supporter.
2. Put the mixture into the machine’s cold tank and make sure the water can flow out of the hot water spout (#8).
3. Plug in the power cord and turn on (I) the heating switch (#12). Allow the water to heat for 15 minutes.
4. Turn off (O) the heating switch (#12) and allow the liquid mixture to cool down for 20 minutes.
5. Drain the liquid from the drain outlet (#14), then flush with water two or three times by following the rinsing instructions above. Only disassemble the parts mentioned to avoid damaging the machine.
